 * Hi,
 * I was wondering if anyone knows how to remove the Bold Thick Underline from the
   links on my website:
 * Example: Gloucester’s Cheese-Rolling and Wake festival – First paragraph
    [http://www.theordinaryadventurer.com/travel/6-unusual-uk-events/](http://www.theordinaryadventurer.com/travel/6-unusual-uk-events/)
 * Im a wordpress newbie so don’t know much about coding.
 * Many thanks!
    Gil

 * First, install a plugin like [Simple Custom CSS](https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css/)
   so you can add Custom CSS code to your site without modifying your theme.
 * Then, add the following code to remove it:
 * `.entry-content a { border-bottom: 0; }`
 * In CSS-speak, it’s technically a “border” and not an “underline” underneath the
   links right now.
 * Also, it’s worth mentioning that the color of links and color of normal text 
   is pretty similar. It would be difficult for your visitors to differentiate links
   without any underline at all.
 * If you’d rather have a thin underline underneath links, use this instead:
 * `.entry-content a { border-bottom: 0; text-decoration: underline; }`
 * Personally, I think this is the best of both worlds. You get rid of the super
   thick border (I agree it looks a bit out of place), but still have a nice thin
   border to differentiate the links from normal content.
 * Hope this helps!
